Inflating wading pool with garden hose

[FlipStyle1308]

Do I use Bernoulli's equation for this problem? If so, how do I go about plugging in the values?

To fill a child's inflatable wading pool, you use a garden hose with a diameter of 3 cm. Water flows from this hose with a speed of 1 m/s. How long will it take to fill the pool to a depth of 25 cm if it is circular and has a diameter of 1.6 m?

Sounds like a straight algebra word problem to me. Am I missing something? If the water is flowing through a 3cm diameter tube at 100cm/s, how many cc's of water per second come out the end? How many cc's of water to fill the pool volume in the problem?

Never mind, I figured this out. Thank you!
